The transmissions if it's a 700r4 has what is called hunt and seize between speeds 50 to 60 miles an hour the transmission goes in and out of overdrive feels like trans slipping but it normal it sucks I had a trans am I stuffed a 350 motor and transmission out of a 85 Corvette, and it drove me nuts try a performance chip or B&M make a shift kit for the overdrive to stop that
